Summary:
"For the first time, the dozens of film and television programs Glenn Gould made with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation from 1954 to 1977 are collected in their entirety in Glenn Gould on Television: The Complete CBC Broadcasts. This specially priced 10-DVD set contains all the original broadcasts unedited and uncut, as they were originally conceived by Glenn Gould and the CBC. More than 19 hours of TV specials, concert performances, interviews and discussions make it possible to discover what Gould always considered some of his most significant and original life's work, most of which has not been seen since it was first telecast."
